The moon has always been a mystery in the sky over humanity since the beginning of time! And she always aroused a lot of interest in her. So, here are 10 of the strangest Moon facts and anomalies you may not have known.
1. Its size and location are too perfect
In recent years, there have been several total solar eclipses. Our Moon is the only known moon that does this to its "master". The Moon is about one quarter of the size of the Earth. The diameter of the moon is 400 times smaller than the diameter of the sun. But the Moon is also 400 times closer to our planet than the Sun, and it moves in a perfect circular orbit around us. Conspiracy theorists will tell you the reason is simple: the moon is "artificial" and its size is the result of intelligence and design work.
2. She is hollow
In 1969, scientists were surprised when seismic equipment on the Moon recorded an echo as the Apollo 12 landed. The moon hummed with bells for over an hour. During the next mission, when the heavier ship landed, the effect was even greater, and the "ringing" lasted more than three hours. Does this really mean that the moon is hollow?

3. The craters of the moon are very strange
The moon is literally dotted with craters, and they are surprisingly the same in terms of their depth, which in principle should not be. Another space anomaly? Likely. But for those who claim that the moon is artificial or hollow, this only confirms their conspiracy theories. One of these assumptions suggests that under the rocky lunar surface there is an "inner shell" of some kind of metallic material that can evenly distribute the impact force.
4. There are many "artificial" structures on the moon
NASA says that "artificial" lunar structures are only optical illusions. However, UFO enthusiasts claim this is irrefutable proof of the workings of alien intelligence. One of these anomalies is the so-called "Tower", towering above the surface of the moon. Its height is 11 km according to rough estimates.
5. The moon was "brought here"
There is no doubt that without the Moon, earthly life will change catastrophically. However, many ancient scriptures allegedly record the times when it was not yet in heaven. It sounds crazy, but is it possible that the Moon is an artificially created structure, placed in a precisely calculated orbit and designed to stabilize conditions on Earth?
6. This is the result of the work of extraterrestrial intelligence
If an unknown ancient (and very brilliant) civilization was not engaged in the targeted placement of the moon, then the only logical assumption would be the idea of the work of extraterrestrial intelligence. Researcher David Icke claims that the Moon is an artificial satellite that transmits signals from Saturn to Earth, creating a "matrix" of our reality. Sounds too fantastic? Or not?
7. The rotation of the moon is also very unique
We've all heard about the dark side of the moon that we can't see. However, it would be more accurate to call this part the "far side", since the moon still rotates. It takes 27.3 days for one circle around the Earth and 27 days for a full turn around its own axis. This "synchronous rotation" makes one side of the moon always invisible to us. I wonder what is there at all?
8. Alex Collier and his "Letters from Andromeda"
Author, explorer and contactee Alex Collier claims to have uncovered the true history of the Moon. He allegedly received "telepathic messages" from an alien living in the constellation Zeneta. According to Collier, the Moon was a huge spacecraft that arrived here millions of years ago and brought "hybrids of reptiles and the first humans to Earth." Inside the moon are the remains of ancient alien bases after a large-scale war that was fought 113 thousand years ago.
9. Ancient texts speak of the period "before the moon"
For example, Aristotle wrote about Arcadia, mentioning that it was "before the moon existed in the sky above the Earth." Similarly, Apollonius of Rhodes spoke of the time "when not all the balls were still in heaven." The Colombian Chibcha tribe retells their oral legends: "In the earliest times, when the moon was not yet in heaven." There are also Zulu legends that the moon was pulled across space for a great distance. There is something to think about!
10. Base of operations
Alex Collier is not the only person talking about the existence of bases on the moon. The recent announcement of the presence of an operational military base was made by Dr. Michael Salla, who is collaborating with the Chinese space agency on a mission to the moon. Even stranger were his comments that NASA actively bombed such bases to hide their presence on the Moon.
